One
Damien Rice
Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame
You say one love, one life
It's one need in the night
One love, we get to share it
Leaves you, darling, if you don't care for it
Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well, it's too late, tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head?
Did I ask too much, more than a lot?
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got
We're one, but we're not the same
Well, we hurt each other, then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask me to enter, but then you make you crawl
And I can't keep holding on to what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love, one blood
One life you got to do what you should
One life with each other: Sisters, brothers
One life, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One! One!
